The Ping G730 Golf Irons are engineered for golfers seeking maximum distance, enhanced forgiveness, and higher launch, particularly on shots that need to hold the green. These irons represent Ping's longest and most forgiving to date, leveraging advanced materials and design for significant ball speed gains and improved playability across the set. While exceptional for game improvement, achieving optimal performance often benefits from a professional fitting to fine-tune loft and swing weight.
Hyper 17-4 Stainless Steel Face: A thinner, more flexible face, achieved through heat treatment, increases ball speed by up to two miles per hour and lowers the center of gravity (CG) for higher launch and an additional five yards of distance.
Extreme Forgiveness Design: A larger head, increased offset, and a wider sole in the investment cast construction boost Moment of Inertia (MOI) in both directions, delivering superior stability and accuracy on off-center hits.
PurFlex Cavity Badge: This integrated badge improves feel at impact and produces a more resonant, powerful sound, contributing to player confidence.
Custom-Engineered Lofts: Lofts are meticulously designed to maximize distance while maintaining consistent gapping between clubs. Options for 'power' and 'retro' spec lofts allow for tailored performance through fitting.
Full-Set Performance with Machined Wedges: The set includes four wedges (Pitching, U-wedge, 50°, 56°) featuring machined faces and grooves for superior control and consistent spin in diverse playing conditions.
Swing Weight Adjustability: Tungsten toe screws and shaft tip weights provide fitters with precise control over swing weight to match individual player preferences and swing characteristics.

The Ping G730 Irons are designed to help golfers achieve longer, straighter shots with greater consistency. The hyper 17-4 stainless steel face flexes more at impact, acting like a trampoline to propel the ball off the face with increased velocity, leading to notable distance gains. This technology, combined with a lower CG, ensures a higher ball flight, allowing shots to land softly and hold the green, which is crucial for scoring.
For example, on a challenging par-3, a shot slightly off-center will still maintain much of its intended trajectory and distance due to the iron's high MOI and extreme forgiveness. The wider sole also helps the club glide more smoothly through turf, reducing digging on heavier strikes and promoting cleaner contact. The PurFlex cavity badge not only contributes to a satisfying sound but also enhances the overall feel, providing clear feedback without the harshness often associated with highly forgiving irons.
When navigating the course, golfers can rely on the full-set performance provided by the precisely engineered wedges. Their machined faces and grooves offer superior spin and control around the greens, allowing for confident chip shots and precise full-swing approaches. The availability of custom-engineered lofts means that during a fitting, a golfer can optimize their club setup to eliminate distance gaps, ensuring they have the right club for every yardage.
For optimal performance with your Ping G730 Golf Irons, professional fitting is highly recommended. A qualified fitter can help determine the ideal loft configurations (power or retro spec), shaft flex (standard is True Temper Dynamic Gold Mid 100), lie angle, and swing weight through the adjustable tungsten toe screws and shaft tip weights. This personalization ensures the irons are perfectly matched to your swing characteristics, maximizing distance, accuracy, and consistency.
These irons are designed for adult, unisex golfers of all skill levels, particularly those seeking significant game improvement through increased distance and forgiveness. The steel shaft offers a stable feel and promotes higher launch. Ensure your chosen shaft flex is appropriate for your swing speed.
To maintain the performance and longevity of your Ping G730 Irons:
Clean After Each Round: Use a stiff brush and warm, soapy water to clean the clubfaces and grooves, especially on the machined faces and grooves of the wedges, to preserve spin and control. Rinse thoroughly and dry completely to prevent rust.
Protect Your Clubs: Always use headcovers when storing or transporting your irons to prevent nicks, scratches, and dings.
Inspect Regularly: Periodically check for any signs of wear, especially on the grip and clubface. Worn grips can be replaced to maintain control and feel.
Avoid Harsh Surfaces: Do not hit off concrete or other hard, abrasive surfaces, as this can damage the clubface and sole.
